    (10/15/09) Silver Dollar City will host it’s annual An Old Time Christmas at the park from Nov. 7th to Dec. 30th, 2009. An Old Time Christmas transforms the 1880s-style theme park into an evening wonderland, featuring the Christmas on Main Street light and sound show throughout the park Square, 1,000 decorated Christmas trees, a Holiday Light Parade, the Broadway-style production A Dickens’ Christmas Carol, festive holiday foods and over four million lights.
    The 5-Story Special Effects Christmas Tree is the park centerpiece, a towering visual icon that comes to life at dusk each evening when the Christmas on Main Street shows begin. During the shows, the massive tree blazes in synchronization to the musical movements of Christmas songs -- up to 100 light changes per second -- while lights on buildings, in hanging canopies over Main Street and on Christmas trees around the Square flash along with it, accompanied by surround-sound, immersing guests in the experience.

    (11/5/09) Silver Dollar City has announced Tom & Huck’s River Blast as their new attraction for the 2010 season. River Blast is a “Splash Battle” style boat ride where the riders are armed with a water gun to shoot at interactive targets as well as guests along the shore, some of which can fire back with their own water guns. Go to the official site to read more details while you wait for it to open on March 18th, 2010. In the meantime, new construction pictures from the park were added to SDCFans about a week ago, and you can see that the station building is already very far along.
    (10/4/09) Construction progress has begun once again for the 2010 project. See pictures at MidWestInfoGuide.
    (6/26/08) According to Screamscape sources construction walls have suddenly gone up surrounding quite a bit of the old Tom Sawyer’s Landing area. The popular rumor is that a Tom Saywer and Huck Finn themed River Battle style attraction could be coming in, an attraction that was actually shown off in a recent guest survey about possible future attractions. We’ve been sent a copy of the artwork used for this survey as well. According to the survey the are a few different names variations under consideration for the attraction, all of which seem to include the use of the “Tom and Huck” names followed by things like River Battle, River Blast, River Adventure, etc.  Now I guess the only question is this… would this be part of the multi-attraction package on the way to the park for the 2009 season, or would this all be for 2010? You can view some discussion about the matter posted to the SDCFans Forum as well as some pictures of the new construction walls here blocking off the balloon ride and other sections here.

2011/2012 - New Coaster - Rumor - (4/2/10) New construction pictures from Silver Dollar City can be found at MidWestInfoGuide. They show off a good bit of footage about what’s been removed to make room for the 2011 project.
    (3/2/10) In addition to the older rumors about a possible Gerstlauer Euro-Fighter coming to SDC, I’m told that the park has also been looking at GCI wooden coaster designs.  This is thought to be a brand new GCI coaster, custom designed to take advantage of the park’s terrain and not a relocation of the Ozark Wildat from Celebration City.
    (3/1/10) It’s been pointed out by SDCFans that the removal of the Waterboggin attraction along with other nearby Splash Harbor areas opens up a section of the park large enough to fit in a new future coaster perhaps. I know a few years ago I had heard SDC staff had shown interest in getting their own version of Dollywood’s Mystery Mine. I know it’s been quite some time since Silver Dollar City added a major new coaster, so perhaps something new is in the works. Stay tuned!
    (10/14/08) With the delay of the 2009 project to 2010, I am assuming any new coaster project for the park will also be delayed for a year or two as well.
    (6/26/08) While this is just a small rumor right now, we’ve heard the Gerstlauer name dropped for SDC’s 2009 project once again, but this time in connection with a possible new custom Spinning Coaster project. Anyone know more?
    (5/11/07) We've heard that Silver Dollar City may be considering the addition of their own themed Gerstlauer Eurofighter coaster, inspired by the positive guest response to Dollywood's Mystery Mine.
